Scouting Report

The Florida Gators are back to their usual success with former Colorado State head coach Jim McElwain at the helm. They had a tough run under former head coach and now South Carolina head coach Will Muschamp. Florida fans combined some of the best parts of SEC tailgating into one place in Gainesville.

Winning SEC East titles just build the excitement surrounding The Swamp. Students always get up for Florida’s football season, no matter what the expectations are. Even the four win season that the Gators had under Muschamp seemed a fun season outside the stadium.

The best time you will have with Florida fans during a tailgate will be the Florida-Georgia rivalry game in Jacksonville. “The World’s Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party” describes in and of itself how much fun Florida fans can have during a tailgate.

Another run to the SEC Championship Game would build up so much hype around the program that fans would flock in nearly the hundreds of thousands around Ben Hill Griffin Stadium.
